OLI Down the Street

Making the Operation Lifesaver message abundantly clear, I'm thinking about trains on these tracks as AMTK 203 brings the westbound Sunset Limited down Winter St in Houston. Rather fitting for Houston's small stretch of pseudo street-running.

 

Normally #1 doesn't run this way, on the Freight Main of UP's Houston Subdivision. But on this day, as is becoming more common now, the Houston Terminal Dispatchers decided to run the train 'Around the World' via Belt Jct to avoid congestion at UP's Englewood Yard. The train will back into the Amtrak Station after passing Chaney Jct ahead.
